Gypsy Children have .....

Gypsy children have gypsy parents of course!  After dragging a small child through several continents over the course of many years my parents' wanderlust has caught them again.  They are no longer content to enjoy vacations in odd places like Croatia or the Maldives.  They needed to be back IN it, living on the other side of the world.  So with much anticipation, a boatload of insomnia and some weird packing we have sent my Dad off to Saudi Arabia!  He arrived in Jiddah this morning and will travel north to Yanbu tomorrow - a search on Google Earth will show you the western coast of the Arabian peninsula, just across the Red Sea from Sudan.  My Mom will be joining him as soon as a Visa is issued for her.  Stay posted for updates on both of them and what life is like when gypsy children get left behind!
